Define functions using standard schema

Overview

This public intake copy packages

plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/daily

https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Capabilities, Skills, Integration, Context, Limitations.

When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

• You are building a real-time voice or multimodal AI application that uses Daily or Pipecat-style transports.
• You need guidance on low-latency audio, video, text, and AI service orchestration in one pipeline.
• You want a capability reference before choosing services, transports, or workflow patterns for an interactive agent.
• Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
• Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.
• Use when the workflow should remain reviewable in the public intake repo before the private enhancer takes over.

Imported: Capabilities

Pipecat enables agents to build production-ready voice and multimodal AI applications with real-time processing. Agents can orchestrate complex AI service pipelines that handle audio, video, and text simultaneously while maintaining ultra-low latency (500-800ms round-trip). The framework abstracts away the complexity of coordinating multiple AI services, network transports, and audio processing, allowing agents to focus on application logic.

Key capabilities include:

• Real-time voice conversations with natural turn-taking and interruption handling
• Multimodal processing combining audio, video, images, and text
• Integration with 50+ AI services (LLMs, speech recognition, text-to-speech, vision models)
• Function calling for external API integration and tool use
• Automatic conversation context management with optional summarization
• Multiple transport options (WebRTC, WebSocket, Daily, Twilio, Telnyx, etc.)
• Production deployment across cloud platforms with built-in scaling

Examples

Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

Use @daily to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.

Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

Review @daily against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.

Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

Use @daily for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.

Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

Review @daily using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.

Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

• Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.
• Prefer the smallest useful set of support files so the workflow stays auditable and fast to review.
• Keep provenance, source commit, and imported file paths visible in notes and PR descriptions.
• Point directly at the copied upstream files that justify the workflow instead of relying on generic review boilerplate.
• Treat generated examples as scaffolding; adapt them to the concrete task before execution.
• Route to a stronger native skill when architecture, debugging, design, or security concerns become dominant.

Troubleshooting

Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in

plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/daily

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated

SKILL.md

Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Pipeline Architecture & Frame Processing

Agents can construct pipelines that connect frame processors in sequence to handle real-time data flow:

pipeline = Pipeline([
    transport.input(),              # Receives user audio
    stt,                            # Speech-to-text conversion
    context_aggregator.user(),      # Collect user responses
    llm,                            # Language model processing
    tts,                            # Text-to-speech conversion
    transport.output(),             # Sends audio to user
    context_aggregator.assistant(), # Collect assistant responses
])

Agents can create custom frame processors to handle specialized logic, work with parallel pipelines for conditional processing, and manage frame types (SystemFrames for immediate processing, DataFrames for ordered queuing).

Speech Recognition & Audio Input

Agents can integrate 15+ speech-to-text providers including OpenAI, Google Cloud, Deepgram, AssemblyAI, Azure, and Whisper. Services support:

• Real-time streaming transcription via WebSocket connections
• Voice Activity Detection (VAD) for automatic speech detection

Function Calling & Tool Integration

Agents can enable LLMs to call external functions and APIs during conversations:

# Define functions using standard schema
weather_function = FunctionSchema(
    name="get_current_weather",
    description="Get the current weather in a location",
    properties={"location": {"type": "string"}},
    required=["location"]
)

# Register function handlers
async def fetch_weather(params: FunctionCallParams):
    location = params.arguments.get("location")
    weather_data = await weather_api.get_weather(location)
    await params.result_callback(weather_data)

llm.register_function("get_current_weather", fetch_weather)

Function results are automatically stored in conversation context, enabling multi-step interactions and real-time data access.

Context Management & Conversation History

Agents can manage conversation context automatically or manually:

• Automatic context aggregation from transcriptions and TTS output
• Manual context manipulation via

  LLMMessagesAppendFrame

  and

  LLMMessagesUpdateFrame

• Image generation integration (DALL-E, Gemini, Fal)
• Video synthesis (HeyGen, Tavus, Simli)
• Simultaneous audio, video, and text processing
• Screen sharing and video frame analysis
• Gemini Live and OpenAI Realtime for native multimodal speech-to-speech

Custom Frame Processors

Agents can create specialized processors for application-specific logic:

class CustomProcessor(FrameProcessor):
    async def process_frame(self, frame: Frame, direction: FrameDirection):
        await super().process_frame(frame, direction)

        if isinstance(frame, TranscriptionFrame):
            # Custom logic here
            pass

        await self.push_frame(frame, direction)

Structured Conversations with Pipecat Flows

Agents can build complex conversation flows with state management using Pipecat Flows:

• Dynamic flows for runtime-determined conversation paths
• Static flows for predefined conversation structures
• State management across conversation turns
• Tool and context management as conversation progresses
• Separation of conversation logic from pipeline mechanics

Metrics & Observability

• Client Platforms: Web (JavaScript/React), iOS, Android, React Native, C++

Imported: Context

Real-time Processing: Pipecat achieves 500-800ms round-trip latency by streaming data through the pipeline rather than waiting for complete responses at each step. This creates natural conversation experiences.

Frame-based Architecture: All data moves through pipelines as frames (audio, text, images, control signals). Processors receive frames, perform specialized tasks, and push frames downstream. This modular design enables swapping services without code changes.

Automatic vs Manual Control: Context management happens automatically through aggregators, but agents can manually control context with frames for advanced scenarios like bot-initiated conversations or context editing.

Service Flexibility: Pipecat abstracts service differences through adapters. Function schemas defined once work across all LLM providers. Context format automatically converts between OpenAI and provider-specific formats.

Production Considerations: For production deployments, use WebRTC instead of WebSocket for better media transport. Pre-cache large models in Docker images. Monitor metrics for latency and token usage. Use Pipecat Cloud for managed scaling or self-host with proper resource allocation.

Turn-Taking Complexity: Natural conversations require coordinating VAD (detects speech), turn detection (understands completion), and interruption handling. Silero VAD provides low-latency local processing. Smart Turn Detection uses AI to understand conversation context. Tuning these parameters is crucial for user experience.

Multimodal Challenges: Combining audio, video, and text requires careful pipeline design. Use ParallelPipeline for independent processing branches. Ensure frame ordering for synchronized output. Test with various network conditions and device capabilities.
